Hidden

K. K.

Cruel.
It is cruel I am not able to admire the eyes, 
I am so in love with. 
Cruel, I don’t get to hold the hand 
that was caressing me all night. 
Cruel, I have to pretend your laugh 
isn’t my favorite sound. 
Cruel, our family will always 
just consist  of the two of us. 
Cruel, the only white dress I will ever see you in is your nightgown. 
Cruel, I don’t get to express 
my longing for you. 
Cruel, to pretend. 
If our love is wrong, 
Then I shall never be right again.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this for the women who long for other women in this cruel world. I originally wrote it in Greek, so excuse if my message did not get delivered, the way I wanted it to be delivered.

    really good utilisation
    of repetition
    to reinforce, rawness
    of the pain
    you so vividly, portray..
    thanks for sharing, really well executed
